(21,124 posts)You claimed that the military would not interfere with Trumps efforts to remain in office in defiance of the law and constitution.
That means, if the rest of the nation- each state and the congress- follow the law, hold elections, submit electoral votes, certify electoral votes, swear in a new president on 1/20/29, but Trump says nope, Im sticking around, the military will nod and say yes sir with tears streaming down their faces.
Thats why, when you repeatedly say THE LAWS DO NOT APPLY TO HIM (even though he has been restrained by numerous court rulings, and has only defied outright one ruling regarding a deportation flight to El Salvador), my reply has been that he cannot defy the laws of physics, which will apply to him once the military recognizes a new CIC (absent a military coup, of course).
Since nationwide martial law is a physical impossibility, and SCOTUS will never relinquish their power by agreeing with Trump that 2=3 (and he hasnt even asked), then I see no evidence to support your claims that he will, with certainty, remain in office beyond the end of his term, as long as he is alive.
As corrupt as this SCOTUS is, their loyalty is to their ideology, not to Trump the man. Trump is merely a means to an end, and will be discarded at the end of this term.
